"My WEB3 BROTHA-Alpha Caller"

I’ve had the chance to meet Retro not just online but in person first in Japan, then later in Istanbul and what struck me both times was the consistency in his energy. He’s the kind of person who walks into a room, physical or virtual, and instantly makes it better. There's no performance, no ego just genuine curiosity, warmth, and a deep love for the community. In Web3, it's easy to get lost in noise, hype, and fleeting trends. Retro is the opposite of that. He’s a steady presence someone who shows up not for clout, but for connection. In the Monad community, he’s more than active; he’s a cultural pillar. Whether it’s helping onboard newcomers, offering clarity in complex discussions, or simply being the one to lighten the mood, Retro’s impact is constant and real. What sets him apart in the broader crypto ecosystem is how effortlessly he blends deep technical insight with a human touch. From his early involvement in Solana projects like Meteora and Pyth to his sharp takes on tokenomics and community dynamics, Retro brings more than just “alpha” he brings perspective. And he shares it openly, with a clarity and humor that’s rare in this space. Retro doesn’t just move through the Web3 world he elevates it. The communities he touches are stronger, more welcoming, and more informed because he’s there. Simply put, he embodies what the future of crypto should feel like: collaborative, grounded, and alive with purpose.
